Any upgrades for steptronic to shift faster?

so, my friend just bought a lexus ISF,, and that thing shifts fast for an automatic, just wondering if there is any mods for zf step to make it shift faster?

Company called Level 10 offers upgrade for our 6AT, enrita got his transmission done by them and looks like it's shifting faster than stock tranny. $4000 upgrade i think.

Does E90 have Sport Automatic Transmission option like the 5 series? That speeds up the shifts.

I agree the E9X auto needs to shifter quicker, but $4k?? I'm sure Level 10 works as promised. May as well trade in car and upgrade to an IS or M3 for that type of money.

4K is for the complete rebuild to handle more powa. For faster shifting you can get the valve body done but IMHO not worth it.
Best would be doing software as well but nobody can fix that.
